Re: Danger? What EXACTLY does the following mean. said by Blogger:Time Warner uses Road Runner mail servers. The socal.rr.com is Road Runner email server.
Actually, 'socal.rr.com' is a localized domain for Time Warner Internet Services; specifically for Los Angeles, California. As '@socal.rr.com', it forms part of the email address. As 'pop-server.socal.rr.com' it is the incoming email server. As 'smtp-server.socal.rr.com' it is the message submission server. As 'hrndva-smtpin01.mail.rr.com', and
'hrndva-smtpin02.mail.rr.com', it comprises two MX servers.

It OWNS RR mail servers. The name has not changed because that would be a logistical nightmare. Road Runner name for TWC internet has changed (due to copy-write and royalty charges for Road Runner logo) to the pathetically unimaginative TW Internet Services but the email servers and addresses will likely never change.
